We took a long while researching what machine to buy and was told by the espresso zealots that if you want authentic shots you have to work for them... Meaning that you need to grind separately, hand press the puck into the porta-filter and pull the...

This espresso maker was a nice machine when it worked. In two years, it required five major repairs (I stopped throwing away the packing materials after the first three breakdowns. The only people who really liked this machine were the folks at UPS)....

I had a semi automatic and it was such a mess to use it. coffee grounds everywhere, wait to make a second shot, dump grounds after... If it is a hassle to use, I get tired of the product easily. This one is great. Load beans in the hopper, water...
